    Default  Amvona/dynatran stuff in.  
      
      

    So I finally have all the stuff I ordered from Amvona.

    Nomad L102T legs
    http://www.amvona.com/?page=shop/fly...roduct_id=2991

    Nice and light. Supports alot of weight. Center shaft is nice and short. Twist locks operate well. I got the 3 piece legs instead of the 4 piece 'cause I didnt want unnecessary links and it takes longer to set the more locks you have. Only real disappointment is that the leg angle locks are plastic. Worried about those busting eventually. While its no bogen etc in price they are a good chunk of change.

    Telos ATH-A02 ball head.
    http://www.amvona.com/?page=shop/fly...roduct_id=3075

    Got it off ebay for $45 not off the website. (after they told me my other head was backordered) Anyhow, I'm seriously impressed with it. Its frikken huge! rubberized knobs, resistance adjustment, seperate pan lock. Its worlds better than the cheap head I had before. I can't stop fiddling with it at my desk. Only thing is there are a couple edges they didnt deburr very well, but I can live with it.

    Anyhow, it all looks like pretty good stuff even given the mediocre service I got. Ill get pics up soon.

    I have the same head and A set of their CF legs. No issues so far.

    P.S. Twist lock legs = the only way to go.

    Oh yah, it came with a bag too, (not pictured)

    It you're looking to buy just wait for the heads on ebay. You'll have to be patient, but they are like half price of the website. They have alot of their CF legs up on ebay, but nearly none of their cheaper aluminum legs in auction format. You'll probably have to end up getting them off the amvona site like I did unless you want higher end CF ones. 4.82lbs total so its not bad at all.

    The tripod case from my first Dynatran tripod works awesome as a lighting gear holder. I can fit 3 lightstands and 2 umbrellas in that sucka!
